OpenHarness: open-source platform to run coding agents across all your machines
dee_hw · x · 2026-09-22
A developer open-sourced OpenHarness (500+ GitHub stars), a software-plus-hardware platform for building with coding agents like Claude Code and Codex.
Key points:
- Unified cross-machine sessions: agents on laptops, servers, office, home, and cloud appear side by side, with sessions persisting across every machine
- Zero-config networking: no SSH or Tailscale required
- Polymath workbench: write software, design parts and circuit boards, explore data, and create videos — agents, domain tools, and live viewers in one place
- Ships with CLI, desktop, mobile apps, and a dedicated harness device
The project cites Peter Thiel's "world-class entrepreneurs are polymaths," aiming to make cross-disciplinary building affordable.
